Our most popular event—a once-a-year opportunity for members to fish in our three-acre-lake! As the museum is closing and everyone else is going home, stick around to enjoy an evening of fishing, fellowship, and picnicking in the gardens.

Additional activities available include visiting the Petting Zoo (which will stay open late on Saturday) and playing volleyball with new friends.

Camping Option

Spend the night camped out in a field next to the Botanical Gardens. Clean restrooms and showers will be available. Spend some more time fishing on Sunday morning, then join us for a special devotional service led by one of AiG’s popular speakers.
